2024 Conference Agenda
Inspector General Paul Martin will present the latest findings of his office as they seek to ensure that American taxpayers’ support for U.S. efforts in Ukraine, the Middle East and the United Nations not misappropriated.
While not involved in direct development lending, IMF lending can provide a leading indicator as to which countries need substantial economic support and what reforms that country is undertaking in order to mobilize that support. Understanding how the IMF makes its decisions, the conditions incorporated into IMF programs, how an IMF program catalyzes donor support, and the U.S. government’s role in all of this will present a unique perspective on this often-overlooked aspect of development.
Officials from Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) will discuss how CIDC members can broaden their development horizons by bidding on contract work in new markets.
Now that you've enjoyed hearing all the great content from our guest speakers, enjoy an hour of networking with fellow participants.

Why should I attend PSC's Development Conference?
PSC’s International Development work is an ever-changing landscape of mission priorities and difficult program delivery. The 11th Annual Development Conference will explore the factors shaping the evolution of international capacity building, related shared government and international development company (IDC) objects, and the roles and contributions of IDCs supporting U.S. government agencies’ critical missions. This is a great opportunity for companies large and small within the development space to learn and network.
Networking at its finest
While our agenda is jam packed with great content and speakers, PSC's Development Conference also builds in plenty of time to networking with fellow attendees through our meals, many coffee breaks, and networking reception.
